Triple-A Reno: Splitting time between shortstop and second base, INF Didi Gregorius continues to swing the bat well. Despite an 0-for-5 performance Wednesday, he was still hitting .295 with a .381 on-base and .443 slugging for the Aces. He had 20 walks and 24 strikeouts. 1B/3B Nick Evans is putting up big numbers, hitting .358 with a .408 on base and .669 slugging.

Double-A Mobile: After pitching well in nine starts with Mobile, LHP Andrew Chafin was promoted to Triple-A Reno. Chafin threw 55 innings for the BayBears, posting a 1.96 ERA with 41 strikeouts and 19 walks. Another starter posting good results is RHP A.J. Schugel, who has a 3.35 ERA, with 41 strikeouts compared with 16 walks, in 45 2/3 innings.

High-A Visalia: CF Evan Marzilli is a little light in the batting average at .261, but he's finding ways to get on base — 26 walks and a .378 on-base — and already has five home runs, two more than he hit in 460 at-bats last season. Marzilli was an eighth-round pick in 2012.

Low-A South Bend: SS Andrew Velazquez is 17f or 41 (.415) with three doubles, four triples and a home run in his past 10 games, raising his season numbers to impressive levels. He has a .285 average, .345 on-base and .475 slugging. He also has 10 stolen bases, though he has been caught four times.

Notable: Anderson will be making his third career start after winning each of his first two. He threw 5 1/3 innings and allowed one run against the White Sox in his major league debut on May 11. … He didn't pitch as well in his next start but still picked up the win despite allowing five runs in 5 1/3 innings against the Dodgers. … According to FanGraphs, Anderson is averaging 91.2 mph on his fastball, 81.4 mph with his change-up and 77.5 mph with his curveball. … Colon has not been nearly as consistent a starter for the Mets as they probably hoped when they signed him to a two-year, $20 million deal in January. He's had three outings in which he allowed six earned runs or more. However, he's also had several impressive starts, including his most recent one, in which he gave up just two runs in eight innings in a win against the Nationals. … Colon has faced the Diamondbacks only once in his career in a start in 2006.
